Would be a great fit into our development in the agriculture sector. I guess there is a I2C-support to extend it, e.g. to have more I/O ports?

The datasheet does not mention I2C. But it's a raspberry pi compute module, so I2C would be internal. They mainly discuss Serial and network connections.

There is (apparently) and Arduino inside there also, mentioned on the datasheet, but with little detail.

It looks to me that they have considered most industrial needs, temperature range, 24 VDC power supply, UPS built in, etc. I would like to see an analog input added to their existing discrete I/O. Maybe analog is available internally also.

Just contacted brainboxes directly. They also sell extension modules to add GPIO channels. Have not recieved any answer yet. Will keep you informed.
